46^th President Joe Biden has apparently fired back at Ye, after the rapper’s slew of anti-Semitic comments on Twitter.

I just want to make a few things clear:

The Holocaust happened.

Hitler was a demonic figure.

And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides.

Silence is complicity.

— President Biden (@POTUS) December 2, 2022

The president’s remarks came hours after Ye, previously known as Kanye West, appeared on Alex Jones’s podcast InfoWars. There, the rapper openly praised Adolf Hitler.

Hitler was the dictator of Nazi Germany from 1933 until death in 1945. Under his reign, over six million Jews were murdered.

“There’s a lot of things I love about Hitler. A lot,” West said.

Alex Jones desperately tries to get Kanye West to clarify that he doesn’t actually love Hitler … but nope.

Ye then went on to talk about his love of Nazis.

“I love Jewish people, but I also love Nazis,” Ye stated.

West was temporally suspended from Twitter after he posted images where he combined the Star of David with a Swastika. In addition, he posted tweets showcasing Twitter CEO, Elon Musk, shirtless. He then went on to publicized private text messages between the two. Musk made it known that the rapper’s account was temporarily suspended due to inciting violence.

I tried my best. Despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. Account will be suspended.

Just clarifying that his account is being suspended for incitement to violence, not an unflattering pic of me being hosed by Ari.

Frankly, I found those pics to be helpful motivation to lose weight!

West has been in hot water for months now. He made his first anti-Semitic comment on October 8^th, where claimed he was going to go “Death Con 3 on Jewish people.”
